Ouano gloves the best in mma ?

Hi,

Ouano gloves are mostly described as quality products. I'm wondering if there are equipment experts/people train a lot who can argue or confirm it.

Or are there much superior mma gloves in the market (perhaps combat sports, fairtex, isami, bodymaker, blitz (uk), everlast mma (manhoef uses) ). What do you think ?

thanks a lot.

I havent tried out enough gloves to definitely say they are the best, but they are high quality and the best Ive used.

I like my Windy Pride style gloves alot.I'd love to get a pair of lace up Winning Shooto gloves but they're hella expensive.As far as MMA training goes,I don't think the UFC gloves are the greatest. I have never fought with that gloves before.Fairtex makes really really nice gloves,I fought with those before and they felt awesome.

Personally I think Ouano MMA gloves aren't so great. The quality is there, but they take forever to break in.

I think the Fairtex thumbless NHB gloves are the best ones for competition.

i hate Ouano gloves and Ouano-style gloves. the padding sits too widely on the fist and the fingers are too short. it also takes forever to break in.

Fairtex is much better IMO

Yea the Fairtex thumbless in my opinion are the best MMA glove right now. If you are looking for a training MMA glove I like the Primetimes.

For me the Ouano gloves are fine when it comes to competition use. With 4oz there no good for bag work and/or training, definitly not sparring

For training I have/use Hayabusa gloves, Twins gloves or my Pride-style gloves that where designed for me
